Hello dear dance organizers, 

I appreciate and value this list when it is focused on dance organizing topics, especially when members speak from their own experience. Occasionally, I enjoy posts that meander into related topics, or are an analysis or description of others' experiences...but less so. I don't find it at all useful when the conversation diverges into social and political commentary, even that commentary is well-intentioned. 

I didn't notice specific language about this, at least not directly, but here are the list guidelines:

Please, can we keep focused on sharing our own dance organizing experiences in order to mutually support each other to succeed in the important and valuable work that we all do in our wonderfully varied ways? Thanks, all!

Cheers from Maine,

Chrissy
